Jesus is not the only holy figure to appear on Google Maps. God himself has made a brief appearance above the Walensee in Switzerland on Google Maps Street View.

Psycologists have a word for the phenomenon of finding familiar
objects in random patterns. They call it 'Pareidolia'. Onformative has even created a computer program, called GoogleFaces, that scans Google Maps satellite imagery looking for patterns that humans might believe are human faces.

GoogleFaces scans through one
satellite image after another on Google Maps, sequentially along the
latitude and longitude of the globe. After scanning around the world it
then switches to the next zoom level and starts all over again.

As it scans each satellite imagery the GoogleFaces face detection
algorithm records the latitude and longitude of any 'faces' it finds.
The onformative website has a few examples of the faces already found on
Google Maps, including the one above, found in the satellite imagery of
Russia.
